You pouring gas on that flame to get some fire ???

ShoulderRoll is a pathetic coward so he doesn’t reply to me any more.

Still won’t stop me from calling him out on his idiocy and hypocrisy.

You are joking right? As a promoter he'll be over the moon to be working with Benn - eddie's job/business is to sell fights that make as much money as possible. After Fury-Joshua this is the 2nd biggest fight that can be made in the UK in terms of gate money.

Americans might laugh at how 'sad' British fans are, or how sad the state of British boxing is - but the reality is that there is some intrigue and more than anything its a fun night out. I can see it but I don't expect non Brits to see it. Different cultures. [then again, as a Brit I just cannot understand the people who go and watch darts championships - but go they do and by all accounts have a fantastic time]

In the US you have a thing with Country box which is a 'thing' and quite a lot of people go see that - to each their own.

Im glad you didnt call this slop quality. Eddy makes the most money when he sells junk. Not only to British, but its hard to sell British junk in America and visa versa.

Benn will win by KO. I'm going to pass on this contest as they're both uneducated street corner b****. I cross the road when I see those types. Two incredibly unlikeable boys in my opinion.

Canelo’s explanation was much more plausible than Conor Benn’s. No need to rehash that here, especially when certain people can’t bring themselves to admit it,

It’s like refusing to acknowledge that 2+2 =4. Why waste time arguing back and forth with somebody like that?

Although all boxing people know it’s basically a domestic fight what concerns me is what weight and hydration causes will be applied . After what their fathers went through i disappointed in all concerned but money is the driver and not the potential health risks that accompany this circus act .

It’s hilarious that ONLY in your deluded mind is that the case There’s actually an argument that Benn’s explanation (according to his lawyer) is more plausible than Canelo’s.

Please break down how Canelo’s explanation was “much more plausible” than Benn’s? You aware that Benn has been cleared of all wrong doing, right? Unlike Canelo who was banned?

That’s also not what I asked either, I asked you is Conor Benn not “likely clean”? Like you deem Canelo?

Or did you pick and chose when legal hearings matter just like you do everything else? Such as passing VADA testing procedures.

This kind of stuff is more an 'event' rather than a well matched fight .Which given the money involved should be the best match up out there. Instead , it's two guys , in more ways than one, built on their father's battles thirty years ago .One has never fought any one of note , the other has never beaten one of note. I'm sure with the .casual money involved that there will be a good under card but shouldn't it be the other way around .If I wanted a 'fun' night out I'd go to a disco , I like my fights real , the best against the best certainly for this kind of hiked money , it's no wonder there's singers , swingers and fireworks outside these events .Enjoy but I'll be glad when it's over.

No, not joking. All I meant by 'sad' was the 'pathetic' shade of meaning ['pathetic' as derived from the Greek pathos, meaning sadness]. It's not about Eddie, per se. It's about having to spin the truth to make a buck, rather than tell the plain, honest truth. I couldn't be a promoter. But let Eddie be Eddie.

Some Americans might, but this American (me) admires the enthusiasm British fans have for their domestic boxing scene. I wish we had as much here in the States.
And yeah, the popularity of darts is a mystery. I sorta get it as a pub game, but televised as a sport?

I'm in the US but I don't understand this comment. What is this Country box you speak of?
